A CRUEL and bloodthirsty murder was
committed at Neaves' cross roads, village
near Augusta, KY, the other day. The
killing was done by John Neaves, eldest
son of Joseph Neaves, an aged citizen
The trouble that led to the deed grew out
, of will made by the deceased by which
his son John was dsinherited. The father
and son were engaged in an angry dispute
over the matter, when the son, blinded by
anger, drew his gun and shot his father.
The old man fell over, covered with blood.
The murderer turned and fed, and moth
ing has been heard of him since.
Col. JOHN B. CAsTLEMAN and Adju-
tant Roger Williams have returned to Lex

The Governors commissioners decided to
report adversely to the sending of troops
to Morehead. The town is dead town,
every business house is closed and the
doors nailed up with the exception of one
small grocery store and saloon. the latter
being carried on by the widow of Craig
Tolliver. The town is patrolled day and
night by forty members of the Law and
Order Society, armed with Winchester
rifles. 1t is the general feeling that as
soon as the patrol is removed the Tolliver-
ties will sweep down on the town and
ayenge the death of their chief. 1t is be-
lieved the only true solution of the bloody
feud is to let the citizens of Rowan County
settle it among themselves.
